Notes
If you want to speed up the process of breaking the biscuits, you can place them in a zip bag and crush them with a heavy object.
Avoid using a food processor to break the biscuits, as it's better to have them in small pieces rather than fully crushed.
Adding an extra layer of foil paper before wrapping can help with shaping the log and achieving smooth edges.
Keep in mind that "biscuits" refers to cookies, a common term used in the Middle East and some European countries.
When wrapping the log, start with wrapping or parchment paper first, then add the foil. Foil tends to stick to the chocolate, making it difficult to unwrap later.
